Good, though it's not exactly like there's many worthwhile games to cash in points for.

In the rest of the world, it's a prize service offered by Nintendo that gives you points for buying games which can be traded in for stuff.

Japan usually gets the stuff like exclusive games and figurines, Europe and America get computer wallpapers and one figurine that requires you to buy like 20 or 30 Nintendo games to get it.

I can't see us getting anything good, outside, of course, the premier prizes.

by "exclusive content" they most likely mean more wallpapers, icons, etc

Cammie Doawaywith confirms that NOA's version will be a mix of Japan's and Europes. Some digital content, more physical content in the first year.

Too bad they took away the forums so now we can't celebrate/complain to the masses. But lets hope they give away some good stuff.

I do too, and most Europeans want it that way. I'm worried, I mean, if they move digital, it'll be crap like Wallpapers. Regardless, I think the first year should be great.

They say America and Europe are too big to have every reward physical.
